Our library touches every aspect of life here in Moses Lake. It serves young and old, The Foundation's current focus is remodeling (modernizing) and expanding the existing facility. Our library is well loved and well used. The library averages 500 visits a day. It is probably the most used public facility in Moses Lake. The building itself isn't large enough to meet the community's needs. When it was built in 1964, our population was only 8,000. It is now over 35,000 in greater Moses Lake. The Foundation proposes to remodel the existing facility and attach an additional 20,000 square feet. Due to lack of space collections have been eliminated and almost every event for adults or kids has to be held in the main part of the facility where everything can be heard throughout the library. Additional space is needed to allow for programs and group meetings can take place without disrupting others wishing to use the library and to allow for collection growth. The current library was built LONG before the computer age. It was not designed to supply power and network connections for computers. These factors can be addressed during the remodel and addition to meet the needs of today and tomorrow. Our library has served us well for 50 year, now is the time to make sure it can continue to meet our needs for the next 50. Won't you help us meet these very important goals? We welcome financial donations as well as those who wish to actively become involved in the work of the Foundation as members. Please see our web site for more information.
